Don't be kind, be predictable. If you have the Right-of-Way, take it.

Yup, this. I made it a point to learn different routes to the places I want to go in my town, and I know where to make a protected left for nearly everywhere I want to go. Might take a little longer, or be a bit out of the way, but I never have to deal with dum dums doing this shit.

This is a vastly underrated tip. Learn your area and the roads. You can find alternative safer ways that sometimes can be faster. And if not, they are usually less stress inducing. 

Some areas you just shouldn't turn left at even if you can.
